The iteration of the operators employed in quantum amplitude ampli¯cation with generalized phases is analyzed by using elementary properties (geometric and algebraic) of the M€ obius transformations (fractional linear transformations). It is shown that, for a given quantum algorithm without measurement, which produces a good state with probability a of success, if the phase angles ' and which mark the good and initial states respectively satisfy ' ¼ with a small enough, then, for a number n of iterations with n 2 Âð1= ffiffiffi a p Þ we get an error probability that is at most Oða 2 Þ.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
